The Armstrong Kessler Mansion — Attraction in Savannah

I was visiting Savannah for the weekend and this landmark was on my list of buildings to visit. It's not open for public, it's just open for private and exclusive events. But you can just walk around the building to check it out. It's a registered national landmark. Built in 1919 by George Ferguson Armstrong and designed by world renown architect Henrik Wallin, the original mansion is the only Italian renaissance revival home in Savannah listed in the "A Field Guide to American Houses".
